[1.5K Sub Special] FM DX Nile FM Cairo 104.2 MHz From Malta [Tropo]. It was caught on 23/08/2025 at around 09:20 AM (UTC+2). As soon as I noticed tropo was coming along on major NMA stations, I found the first stop around Triq l-Imdina in H’Attard and had to stop which a number of stations began coming in and shadowing some of the Sicilian stations. The place is an open air spot which several stations reached RDS levels such as this one displaying ‘Nile FM’.
Cairo has been noticed multiple times in Malta despite being rare but this is the first time that stations reached RDS levels. Cairo is both caught via Tropo and Sporadic-E and the latter has been noticed this season as well. It is broadcasting from Egypt’s Al Qahira FM Transmitter which houses around 10 kW in transmission power that is approximately 1,690 kilometres away towards Cairo. This is one of the most distant tropo catches around the Mediterranean reaching RDS levels!
We have just crossed another exciting milestone reaching over 1,500 subscribers! I am truly grateful to each and every one of you for your support, encouragement, and the amazing feedback you have shared along the way. This journey wouldn’t be what it is without you, and your enthusiasm motivates me to keep putting energy and passion into this hobby. I am always looking for ways to keep things fresh and enjoyable, and I hope this upload adds to that. Thank you for being such an important part of this adventure, here’s to many more milestones ahead. Wishing you all the best, and 73! 😊
